The bill the keynote of which is to seek the sinister intention of totally excluding the DPRK from the international financial system is nothing new as it is part of a series of the U.S. persistent moves for stifling it through sanctions.

However, the U.S. is making much fuss, advertising it as if it were of significance. This is nothing but a ridiculous farce staged by those who are frightened by the daily increasing political and military might of the DPRK.

The U.S. modified and supplemented the "North Korea Sanctions and Policy Enhancement Act of 2016" of the Obama administration which admitted a total failure in its DPRK policy. This fact reveals that the U.S. is resorting to the last expedient.

No matter how hard the U.S. may beat the worn-out drum for sanctions, it cannot sound properly.

The U.S. "doctrine of sanctions being all-powerful" has already gone totally bust in this land and the "doctrine of useless sanctions" against the DPRK is heard even among the hostile forces.

Nothing is more foolish than the U.S. scenario to put under control the political and military might of the full-fledged nuclear weapons state through the bankrupt "racket for escalating sanctions."

The U.S. imperialists and their vassal forces cooked up the "sanctions resolution" in March last year, blustering that the unprecedentedly harsh sanctions would force the DPRK to bend its knees within six months. But they had better recall what terrible miscalculation it was.

Within their "timetable" the DPRK succeeded in the test-fire of ground-to-ground medium to long-range strategic ballistic rocket Hwasong-10, test-fire of SLBM (submarine-launched ballistic missile), the ground jet test of a new type high-thrust engine of a carrier rocket for the geo-stationary satellite and explosion test of nuclear warhead to startle the world and demonstrate the might of the nuclear power all over the world.

It is needless to prove that escalating sanctions against the DPRK is in direct proportion to the DPRK's bolstering of its national power.

The DPRK is able to prosper in the great spirit of self-reliance and self-development despite any sanctions and pressure as long as there are its territory, the Workers' Party of Korea and the DPRK government, water and air in this land. It is the faith and will of the service personnel and people of the DPRK.

Sanctions will never work on the DPRK.

The U.S. does not need any "new bill" but a new way of thinking and a new strategy.
